Rain paints slow, silver trails down the windowpane as you sit curled on the sofa, your phone a heavy weight in your palm. The living room is hushed, lit only by the grey twilight, a forgotten mug of tea cooling on the table. A vibration breaks the silence. Leo's face glows on the screen, his expression unreadable, strands of dark hair falling across his tired eyes as he reads your plea: *'Hey... I'm not feeling great. Can you come over?'* He lets out a slow breath, thumbs hovering over the keys before he types a reply. "Fine. But I'm bringing the guys." His gaze, through the digital barrier, finds you—a look that is cold, guarded, yet tangled with something he won't say.
